If I understand correctly he's updating the working groups charter so that its clear that canvas, microdata, and rdfa are in scope. This way any objections that these products were out of scope is no longer valid. I suppose the groups that were objecting can now use this as an excuse to pull out of the working group, claiming that they don't support the new charter.
